MIC2292/93C
High Frequency PWM White LED Drivers
with Internal Schottky Diode and OVP
General Description
The MIC2292C and MIC2293C are high frequency, Pulse
Width Modulator (PWM) boost regulators optimized for
constant-current, white LED driver applications. Because
of their constant PWM switching frequencies of 1.6MHz
and 2MHz, respectively, the MIC2292/93C can use the
smallest external components, allowing designers to avoid
sensitive IF bands in their RF applications.
The products feature an internal Schottky diode and two
levels of output overvoltage protection allowing a small
size and efficient DC/DC solution that requires only four
external components.
The 2.5V to 10V input voltage range of MIC2292/3C allows
direct operation from 1- and 2-cell Li Ion as well as 3- to 4-
cell NiCad/NiMH/Alkaline batteries. The MIC2292/3C pro-
®
ducts are available in a small size 8-pin 2mm × 2mm MLF
package and have a junction temperature range of
–40°C to +125°C.

Notes:
1. Absolute maximum ratings indicate limits beyond which damage to the component may occur. Electrical specifications do not apply when operating
the device outside of its operating ratings. The maximum allowable power dissipation is a function of the maximum junction temperature, T
J(max)
, the
junction-to-ambient thermal resistance,
θ
JA
, and the ambient temperature, T
A
. The maximum allowable power dissipation will result in excessive die
temperature, and the regulator will go into thermal shutdown.
2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating.
3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions recommended. Human body model.
4. Specification for packaged product only.
